What does that look like to you?
I got a couple of hours of lousy sleep. When I gave up and got out of bed at 1:40, I didn't think contractions were the issue - more like indigestion, hip pain, and a pernicious inability to get comfortable. But when I came downstairs to my computer I noticed that it felt like I was having one incredibly long continuous contraction. So I started monitoring.
It's been every 5-7 minutes since 2am. The contractions are about a minute long, mostly not painful although some have definitely been. Right now I'd lay even odds for it being early labor vs. just another frustrating, meltaway prelabor experience.
Either way, I'm not going to work tomorrow. I'll probably send Michael to work, though, unless they establish more of a painful, escalating pattern over the next couple of hours.
I don't know. Now I think they might be tailing off. If I've missed a night's sleep for nothing...
Anyway. I'll keep you guys posted.

Hopefully my second thought there is more apt!
